The József Gyönyör collection represents the work of a lawyer and publicist from the time of his work in the Slovak government (beginning in 1969) at the Department of Nationalities. His main task in the government was to promote the Nationalities Bill of 1968, which aimed to establish a committee of nationalities and partial cultural autonomy. This collection therefore gives significant insight into the efforts of cultural minorities to obtain greater recognition.
As a publicist, Gyönyör wrote articles for the Új szó newspaper. In his articles he analysed the situation of the Hungarian minority in Czechoslovakia and Slovakia, and these articles are important as first-hand accounts of status of the Hungarian minority.

Kiáltó Szó – Sándor Balázs Private Collection

The Kiáltó Szó – Balázs Sándor Private Collection in Cluj-Napoca contains the second Transylvanian Hungarian samizdat magazine issued under Ceaușescu’s regime and offers insight into the democratic resistance and the human rights struggle of the time. At the same time the samizdat is an example of the pre-1989 Hungarian–Romanian rapprochement, in which the idea of shared destiny secured a common ground for minorities and the majority alike.

László Szabédi Memorial House

The collection of the Szabédi Memorial House encompasses the literary heritage of various Hungarian Transylvanian writers and intellectuals after 1918. The end of World War I and the subsequent treaty of Trianon in 1920 put an end to the free development of the Transylvanian literary tradition, until then part of the wider national Hungarian literature. Under Romanian rule, the previously mainstream literary activities became suppressed, and the preservation of the literary heritages was considered a subversive activity.
